Karl Ribas’s Summary
I consider myself a search engine marketing consultant, but in all reality I am person who wears many, many hats. In addition to search marketing, I dabble in graphic and website design, multi-media design, photography, and computer and Internet technologies. In fact, before getting involved in search, I was a free-lance graphic artist and worked on a variety of local projects.
I first began my involvement with search engine marketing in September of 2003, at which time I accepted an entry level position with All Web Promotion, a local website design and marketing company. As time moved forward, I had the privilege of growing with All Web Promotion as it increased from a staff of 5 to its current team of 11. In December of 2004, I was promoted to Project Manager, a position that I happily occupy today.
In addition to my involvement with All Web Promotion, I operate a search engine marketing and consulting website, and offer a variety of services, including search engine optimization, pay per click management, graphic design solutions, and website design and development. I am very devoted to my work, both at the All Web Promotion office and in my personal efforts with this website. As strange as that may sound, it’s true. To me, designing visually pleasing websites and then helping them to rank high within the search engines is more than just a pay-check, it’s a hobby and a passion.
